In a drying process, the moisture content of 35 kg of food will be reduced from 82% to 6%. The air used for drying enters the dryer at 80 ° C and exits at 70 ° C. To heat the air, 130 kg of saturated steam at 105 ° C is used. Food enters the dryer at 25 ° C and exits at 60 ° C. According to the ambient air temperature is 20 ° C; Calculate the drying efficiency based on evaporation latent heat and sensible heat.
(Specific heat of food = 3.30 kJ / kg ° C)

It therefore may be the most reasonable to sacrifice compactness to minimize requirements for expensive advanced technologies. Consider a plan to provide power to a small city with a population of 100,000, using hydrogen fuel cells with an efficiency of 60%. The average net per-capita power consumption is 6 kW of electricity, heat, and power for an electric vehicle. (a) Calculate the volume of hydrogen needed to provide the city's energy for one month if the hydrogen is stored at a (relatively low) pressure of 1 MPa. (b) If the city has a land area of 100 km2, what fraction of this area would need to devoted to hydrogen storage if the storage tanks were vertical cylinders 3 m in diameter and 5 m high and were packed tightly together in a square array?arrow_forward
- b Estimate the radius of the cylindrically shaped crater that such a comet strikes the Moon. Assume that the crater, of depth 10 km, is formed by heating to 3,500 K, and thus vaporizing, a cylindrical volume of moon rocks. Moon rocks are made of silicates, which have molecular weights of ~ 30 (i.e., m cm°. Ignore the latent heat required to melt and vapourize the rocks, and the energy involved in vapourizing the comet itself. creates when it 30 mH), and mean solid densities p ~ 2 g/ ~arrow_forwardRecent studies show that the major energy consumption in Fijian villages is wood which is used for cooking on open fires. Typical consumption of wood is 1 kg/person/day. (a) Estimate the heat energy required to boil a 2 litre pot full of water. Assuming this to be the cooking requirement of each person, compare this with the heat content of the wood, and thus estimate the thermal efficiency of the open fire. (b) How much timber has to be felled each year to cook for a village of 200 people ? Assuming systematic replanting, what area of crop must the village therefore set aside for fuel use if it is not to make a net deforestation ?arrow_forwardWhen they ripen, ground cherry fruits naturally fall off the plant via a process known as abscission, in which the cylindrical stem of the fruit detaches from the plant. Abscission is an enzymatic process, but the release of the enzymes is heavily influenced by temperature. Extremely cold temperatures can cause premature abscission of unripe fruit. Farmer Joe wants to collect and sell as many ripe ground cherries as possible. Unfortunately, the ground cherry plants are located next to the property line, and Farmer Joe's clumsy neighbor inadvertently sprays them with a fire extinguisher when dealing with an out-of-control backyard grill fire. (a) If the entire surface of the ground cherry plant is completely covered by the fire extinguisher medium, estimate the depth into the stem of the fruit that will have changed temperature after 1 second. Some parameters to help your calculations: Fruit stems are cylinders 2-mm in diameter and 30-mm long (L~). The thermal conductivity of the stem…arrow_forward

The water vaporizes and diffuses through a stagnant film of air, estimated to be 2.5 mm thick, on the surface of the water. Under the evaporation condition, consider as an approximation that the temperature of the water is essentially equal to its dry bulb temperature, 28 ° C. Calculate the time required for the water layer to completely disappear, for thecase the floor is porous and the water also penetrates the floor at a constant rate of 0.1kg / (m2.h).Calculate the vapor pressure of water using the Antoine equation below. The diffusivity of water vapor in air is 0.2201 cm2 / s at 1 atm and 0 ° C.

Would the answer be different if the wafer has a mass greater than 3 grams? Note: the specific heat of copper is 387 J/(kg*K). The temperature is between 25.8 and 26.0 degrees celsius, yes the bigger the mass the greater the energy. O The temperature is between 25.6 and 25.8 celsius, answer does not depend on mass. O The temperature is between 25.0 and 25.2 celsius, answer does not depend on mass. O The temperature is 25.5 and of course the more mass something has the greater energy will be needed to raise the temperature.
